Live longer is really not allowed you know. That nice Mr. Attenborough from the telly says so, as does jolly Mr. Porrit. Gordon won't like it either since his income would turn to outgoings.

Oh, and moving more is both dangerous and carbon emitting which some might think confuses the message a little but so long as when talking about one we always blatantly ignore the other none of the denizens will notice.

I conclude that most of of the current post-scientific period research is little more than a shell game.

I'm just a passerby from across the pond that found this blog through a link. I would shake my head and say "You Brits..." but things aren't much better over here in the states, I'm afraid!

Anyhoo, I wanted to make a comment on that quote, as its a question I've always wanted to ask...

Do people who preach moderation live in moderation, or do they, probably unbeknownst to them, hang out somewhere above/below the middle? Water, for example, as mentioned by Tonk. We know that something like 3 gallons of water in a single day will hurt you and that too little every day will do the same. Between 0 and 48 is 24 (cups). Do moderates drink 24 cups/1.5 gallons of water every day?

I doubt it. So why do they preach moderation? Because it just sounds sensible. Why does it sound sensible? I don't know... it just does! But then again, so did a lot of nanny health advice seem sensible to people. Which is why I don't like moderates either. They preach just as much and are more than likely hypocrites at that.

"The best way to take control over a people and control them utterly is to take a little of their freedom at a time, to erode rights by a thousand tiny and almost imperceptible

reductions. In this way the people will not see those rights and freedoms being removed until past the point at which these changes cannot be reversed."
